I Think I Burned It

Sometimes inspiration for posts come from really weird places. Right now The Bf is cooking dinner and I hear "I think I burned it". So I walk the 12 feet from the couch to the kitchen and look into the skillet where a wave of butter and spaghetti hit my nose and make me smile. A couple of dark mustard pieces but certainly no reason to waste perfectly good buttered spaghetti. Where am I going with this? Well, that beautiful wave of butter also had a beautiful deep, dark mustard color to it and that is the inspiration for today's post.

There is nothing I don't like about this tank. Pair it with a denim jacket or a printed cardigan for optimal punch.

A deep mustard is a great transition color from summer to fall. Pair it with neon accessories for warmer days and bring it down with a cranberry or navy for fall.

Ochre Jealous?

You know what color I'm loving lately? Ochre. Haven't heard of it? Where have you been? Everyone knows ochre. And by everyone, I mean, maybe 12 people. I had never heard of it. But I'm an ochre convert.

Ochre is a natural earth pigment that ranges from yellow to a orange-brown. It screams fall. It is not quite mustard and not quite sunshine. It floats in the middle in a super cool, understated ochre way.
